And when their army came down from Qingfeng Mountain, the number of archers was eight hundred.
It was because of heavy losses in the attacks on Zhujiazhuang, Hujiazhuang, and Lijiazhuang that the number was suddenly reduced to two hundred.
And before their army went out to battle, they were actually equipped with shield soldiers.
As for the number of people, there are hundreds of them.
However, when attacking Zhujiazhuang, Hujiazhuang, and Lijiazhuang, they were attacked with rockets by the opponent, and not many of those shields were damaged.
As for the remaining ones, Wu Yong felt that the number was small, and that wooden shields were extremely easy to make.
So he ordered it to be thrown away on the spot.
Instead, he asked the shield soldiers to collect some of the siege equipment, swords and weapons from the three villages for the future use of Qingfeng Village to defend against enemies.
At this time, although Wu Yong secretly hated himself for his foolish actions, it was useless to think about them at this time.
So he had to order the archers as much as possible to suppress the crossbowmen.
It would be okay if their two armies were quite far apart. After all, the effective range of those short crossbows was only about twenty meters.
And ordinary bows and arrows can often shoot to eighty meters or even further.
With such a huge range gap, once the two sides fight, the side holding the short crossbow will inevitably suffer heavy losses.
But at this time, the distance between them was less than thirty meters at most.
Therefore, no matter how accurate and penetrating the archers' arrows are, their huge advantages cannot be fully utilized in this battle.
Of course, that doesn't mean that the appearance of the two hundred archers is of no use at all.
At present, it seems that at least the attack edge of the masked crossbowmen can be delayed, giving Song Jiang's army a chance to breathe.
At this time, Song Jiang and Wu Yong were extremely anxious as they looked at the minions falling one after another in the distance.
The two of them were working together before. After catching the leader of the other party, they must take care of him.
Only in this way can the two of them feel relieved.
But the scenes in front of them were inevitably the opposite of what they both had in mind.
Gradually, the two of them gave up their original ideas.
Instead, how can we break out of the opponent's encirclement as soon as possible?
And in this situation without the protection of shield soldiers, it seems that the only remaining archers have become the only hope for them to break out.
And when Wu Yong called those archers back, the number actually decreased by more than a hundred.
The number of archers now reduced from 800 when they came down the mountain to more than 80 now.
Although Wu Yong felt extremely distressed in his heart at this moment, under the current situation, if they were not allowed to act as the vanguard, then there was no telling how many casualties their army would have.
So Wu Yong, after a brief communication with Song Jiang, moved the remaining archer team to the front of the entire army.
Then Song Jiang's group roared and brandished their weapons, and launched a desperate charge toward a weak point in the encirclement.
Their breakout was already a life-threatening effort.
So in a short time, a hole was broken through the encirclement of the masked men.
And these people, in order to escape from this place as soon as possible.
All the gold, silver, horses, weapons, young men and other materials plundered from Zhujiazhuang, Hujiazhuang and Lijiazhuang were left here.
Song Jiang, Wu Yong, Hua Rong and other leaders were galloping in front of them on horseback.
The minions who were unable to ride their horses followed closely behind.
This battle lasted for more than an hour.
A total of more than 1,100 enemies were wiped out.
Harvest countless resources such as weapons, horses, money and food.
And when those masked men were happily cleaning the battlefield.
A strong, masked man holding a short crossbow in his right hand and an iron rod in his left hand came to a big maroon horse.
And on the back of the big maroon horse, there was the one-foot-long green Hu Sanniang whose hands and feet were tied up.
The strong man first used his fingers to lightly flick Hu Sanniang's pink and white forehead.
Then many teasing words came out of his mouth one after another.
"This pretty and charming little lady, were you scared just now?"
"If you are scared, you can jump into my arms now."
"Although my arms are not spacious, they are still majestic enough."
"I believe it will soothe your panicked mind."
In fact, when the original Hu Sanniang saw the masked man walking towards her, she wanted to say thank you.
No matter what the other party's purpose was in ambushing Song Jiang and others, she was rescued after all.
Therefore, it is reasonable for Hu Sanniang to thank the other party.
But before she could say anything, the man started teasing her in a colorful way.
This immediately made Hu Sanniang feel a sense of disgust in her heart.
Because, both Zhu Biao, who had been engaged to her, and Wang Ying, the short-legged tiger who had just kidnapped her, were both completely lustful evil spirits.
Whenever Hu Sanniang was with them, they were trying every possible way to harm her body.
So over time, Hu Sanniang lost any favorable impression of those lecherous people who only wanted to take advantage of women.
And just now, the masked man's teasing towards Hu Sanniang not only did not make Hu Sanniang feel any good feelings in her heart, but also aroused her disgust towards lecherous men.
Think about this.
Hu Sanniang immediately turned her head to the side.
Hu Sanniang's behavior couldn't help but confuse the masked man standing in front of her.
When he came to his senses, he asked helplessly.
"Miss, at least I saved your life this time. It's fine if you don't thank me. But now you have such an attitude towards me. What does this mean?"
"Is it possible that I rescued the wrong person?"
"Or is it that Wang Ying, that despicable, dirty, and shameless person, is the most ideal type of husband for a little girl like you?"
When Hu Sanniang, who was tied up on the horse, heard this, she couldn't help it.
"Pooh!"
"No ivory comes out of a dog's mouth."
"That guy is not only ugly in appearance and short in stature, but his head is full of nasty thoughts."
